We had no idea there was an actual J-Dub membership awaiting! We planned to buy a t-shirt or hat on our way out to commemorate our finding but then the real fun began! When my husband told the guy helping us (manager maybe, if not he should be!) the reason we came in, his eyes lit up and he asked with a confident nod "You a J-Dub?" ... and then honored him with THE one and only J-Dub family membership. Sadly, the owner wasn't in for a JD brotherly send off, but we'll definitely be back when we're in the area. Fellow J-Dubs unite and give this place some love. Even if you're not, it's still a fun place to visit. The hazel nut coffee is a must try!

Well, except the wings which were a little dried out, but still edible. The fries were hot and fresh, the Nashville chicken sandwich had a great spice and was freshly made, the size caesar salad was small, but fresh and flavorful, and the Margherita pizza was one you'd expect in a brewery, but won't make you think you're in Italy. We didn't partake in beer since we were off to work in the afternoon, but looking at the menu, I didn't see anything that was for me. I'm a wheat beer fan and didn't see anything that would entice me to return for a beer later.

I didn't breathe between bites--I simply inhaled the deliciousness. It's been 8 hrs and I am still thinking about this burger. Probably will still be thinking about it tomorrow too. The only thing that I would improve on is that I am not sure if the fries are made in house. They seemed pre frozen and flash fried. They still tasted good though.

Another 5 star experience! Got 2 burger this time and they were delicious. I'll definitely be back.read more

I'm so excited to tell you about my all time favorite restaurant, The Brickhouse in Bend Oregon…read more This probably says it all...I was there for 6 days and had dinner at the Brickhouse for 3 of them. Outstanding, excellent, creative, exceptional are all descriptions of my meals. I love the ambience and service too!! Josh, Nathaniel, And Jason were all helpful for our menu selections, gave us taste of wine to select the best one, and were attentive to every aspect of our dining experience. I can't wait to go back. I'm already dreaming of the zucchini appetizer, the beet salad, the caesar, the filet and seafood platter(lobster too), the scampi and linguine and the best prepared steelhead with vegie ragu. Amazing!! Amazing!! I never mind spending for dinner when it's first class all the way!! Thank you Brickhouse. See you in September.

Service was incredible, the waiter was extremely friendly and gave good suggestions, he was also as…read moretimely as he could be with how busy they were and was very transparent on hang ups which I appreciate and cannot fault anyone for. The food was decent but not as good as the price point reflects. I ordered the steak pasta which had good cuts of meat but was overall underwhelming. If you're going to spend $35 at a minimum, the food should blow you away. The ambiance is my main complaint and I honestly have no idea how to fix this but I could not hear my partner from across the table. The restaurant was so loud that we spent most of our meal either not talking, or asking what the other had said after trying to talk. Brickhouse I really want to like eating in your restaurant, but I just cannot see a reason to dine there when there are 5 other restaurants that have similar pricing for a significantly better overall experience.

Between the exceptionally good food at Hook and Plow, a most pleasant hotel experience, and a memorable trip to the High Desert Museum; our trip to Bend turned out to be a pleasure instead of the miserableness I expected. We had the Steak Tartare, the Chef's Board, the Blackend Crabcake, the Pear and Burrata Salad, and the Bone-in Pork Chop. We each got the cheesecake for desert and split the other dishes. This was more than enough for the three of us and we left full, happy, and with three large to-go boxes. The flavors of the various dishes were amazing. While all the dishes were vvery good, the standouts to me were the steak Tartare, the Pear and Burrata Salad, and the Cheesecake.

It was incredibly dry without any sauce, served with roasted potatoes (instead of mashed as advertised), and came with a little salad... there was no dressing on the salad, so it was really of no added value on the plate. I really wanted to like this place, but even the service is just a little "off" from my expectations. I sat for over 10 minutes with no contact from a server. No water. And the place had no air conditioning on a day that was 80 degrees. I don't think I'll give this place a third try, but I hope they can fix the problems. I like their concept and location.

They are host to a bunch of killer food trucks, AND they have a great bar serving a great collection of local microbrews. The locals are very cool and inviting of out of towners like myself! Old school Nintendo 64 Mario golf going on the big screen made this a fun place to hang out for sure! Go here.

We ordered the calamari for an appetizer, it was good, not overly cooked. I had clam chowder which had good flavor as well. For entrees we had the chicken fried chicken and the fish and chips. The chicken was by far better than the fish. The tartar sauce was not good at all, tasted spoiled to me. The fish was nothing to get excited about either. The best thing I had was the fries. I get that they are the oldest restaurant in town and maybe that's what they are banking on, however, quality and speed of service are missing big. We were never asked if we wanted another drink, never had our waters refilled, but they sure didn't forget if we wanted dessert! Gotta make sure you get that money or at least try...we passed on the dessert. I only gave it 2 stars due to the view we had, it was probably the best thing we had, the fries were the 2nd best. Updated from 2 to 1 star. After I posted my initial review while sitting at the table. They brought our check, I put my card down on the check. We then waited and waited and waited! I finally became impatient, took the check up to the hostess to see if they could cash us out. Of course they had to get a manager to do that. Clearly, they are not staffed appropriately to have people waiting for long periods of time on each step of the dining experience.

The place had a cozy atmosphere, but most importantly, the staff were friendly and knowledgeable about beers, something I really value in a beer bar. To be honest, I had gone to another brewery near the river in the area earlier where I was treated terribly by their bartender, and I was starting to think that was just the vibe in Bend. This spot completely turned things around and showed me how great the beer scene in Bend truly is. I highly recommend it!

A friend recommended Brother Jon's, their kitchen is open till 10. Classic old sports pub feel, plenty of beer taps to find something you like. Service was excellent, but they weren't too busy being late on a Wednesday. The food was actually quite surprising. Much better than your typical sports gastro pub. And the portions are crazy big! I was actually glad we skipped an appetizer! Which I never thought I would ever say... upgrading to house fries (which were great) is a $4 up charge. So be aware of that. I was surprised as most place charge $1-2.

I was a solo diner and she gave me just the same attention and hospitality as her other groups. It was a very homey feeling, I felt like I was having breakfast at a friend's house. The margarita was very yummy, not too sweet and super refreshing. The Baja Chicken Hash was a party in my mouth. I felt like every bite had a different level of something. I wouldn't recommend if you're not a saucy person. Between the salsa, poached egg and hollandaise I was in sauce heaven. Stefan was very personable, he encouraged me to try the homemade hot sauce with my meal and simply said "try this, trust me". The homemade hot sauce and ketchup really complimented the dish as well. The owner walked around and talked with myself and other guests and he also helped buss my table. Very admirable to see owners be present and get down and dirty with the staff. Much respect and appreciation. Only visiting Bend but will definitely dine again for I leave and will absolutely tell a friend :)

Normally that's not a problem but we were traveling so didn't get to take all that delicious food back home with us. Funnily enough I overheard the manager speaking to another couple and mentioning you can order half size portions which is pretty convenient. Food was tasty! Service was decent (felt like the waitress said "perfect" one too many times and also asked us on 3 different occasions where we were from). Outside of that we'd definitely come back to try some of the other items on the menu. The bakery looked tempting as well!
